How much does it cost to rent a scooter? What places rent them?
Thanks!
IMO, the biggest cost in renting a scooter (at least on STT or STJ) would be the cost of making sure your life insurance premium is paid as well as your air ambulance service.) I've been going to the VI for seventeen years and would not seriously consider renting a scooter on either island. The roads are narrow and hilly and not conducive to scooters especially if it rains.

Hello Jessi,
St. Thomas, Tropical Scooters I think its about $50-60.
St. Croix has no scooter rentals.
St. John has one also - don't recall the name right now.

It was nearly 2 years ago, but we rented scooters in Fredericksted St. Croix. There were many well maintained roads and little traffic. The few motorists we encountered, were very courteous. It was the ideal setting for riding scooters. On the other hand, I found even cab rides in St. Thomas and St. John more dangerous. I wouldn't rent a truck let alone a scooter.
Hello,
St. Croix has many more flatter roads in open areas, primarily outside of the two main towns. But as of a few months ago when I last check there are no scooter rentals on S.t Croix right now. (There used to be one or two; one is now retail/mechanic.)
